The Latest Model Comparison for the Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches

The Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches may be the most popular Cisco campus switches now.

Why?

The Catalyst 3850 Series supports full IEEE 802.3 at Power over Ethernet Plus(PoE+), Cisco Universal Power over Ethernet (Cisco UPOE), modular and field-replaceable network modules, RJ45 and fiber-based downlink interfaces, and redundant fans and power supplies. With speeds that reach 10Gbps, the Cisco Catalyst 3850 Multigigabit Ethernet Switches support current and next-generation wireless speeds and standards (including 802.11ac Wave 2) on existing cabling infrastructure.

Customers need to purchase the IP Base software model or the IP Services software model in order to use a Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switch as a wireless controller. LAN Base models require the purchase of a StackPower cable separately to enable StackPower functionality.
